“Building a business for the long term” with Sridhar Iyengar of Zoho
Building resilience into a company is only possible with long term vision and thinking. Companies must consider what keeps them relevant longer term.
Richard Rosser, CEO of B4 talks to Sridhar Iyengar, Head of Europe and UK at Zoho
Building resilience into a company is only possible with long term vision and thinking. Companies must consider what keeps them relevant longer term. This demands a strategic approach encompassing all aspects of a business from building deep expertise to employee hiring.
With long term planning, companies can also take a wider business responsibility than profit creation. Zoho undertakes many initiatives which are intrinsic to its existence and which greatly benefit communities and their economies.
Companies that get this right see benefits including customer advocacy and loyalty, which in turn keep the business healthy long-term.

Why it’s important for Business Leaders to be exposed to new...
Nobody likes a ‘know it all’ and let’s face it, there’s no such thing. At the other end of the scale, many of us don’t create enough time to take on board new ideas, innovation and creativity in whatever format. How many times have you been recommended to read a book, get sent the link, go on Amazon, maybe even buy it but it just sits on your bookshelf? Come to think of it, as an aside, just think about that for a second….I wonder what the actual percentage of books purchased are actually read? Frightening thought!
